Stylet tips in sieve elements of Iroquois (A) and TGR‐1551 (B) melon. (A) Iroquois: aphid and leaf were cryofixed 165 s after initial penetration of the sieve element. Phloem phase began with 94 s of waveform E1 and sample was cryofixed during E2, 70 s after the transition from E1 to E2. Damage to the left of the stylet tips occurred during dissection. (B) TGR‐1551: aphid and leaf were cryofixed 229 s after initial penetration of the sieve element. The aphid was engaged in waveform E1 the entire 229 s. pro, protein occlusion; sp1, sieve plate of penetrated sieve element; sp2–3, sieve plates of sieve elements not penetrated by the stylet tips; st, stylet tips.
