@Override
public void onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu, MenuInflater inflater) {
        super.onCreateOptionsMenu(menu, inflater);
        getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.home, menu);

        MenuItem searchMenuItem = menu.findItem(R.id.activity_home_action_search); 
        SearchView searchView = (SearchView) MenuItemCompat.getActionView(searchMenuItem);

        View searchplate = searchView.findViewById(android.support.v7.appcompat.R.id.search_plate);
        searchplate.setBackgroundResource(android.R.color.transparent);
}

Suppose, this will help you 

int searchPlateId = searchView.getContext().getResources()
        .getIdentifier("android:id/search_plate", null, null);
View searchPlateView = searchView.findViewById(searchPlateId);
if (searchPlateView != null) {
    searchPlateView.setBackgroundColor(Color.BLACK); //depand you can set
}
