Average <jats:italic>ϕ</jats:italic> was 60% higher than at steady state over the first 600 s of induction and 30% higher over the first 1500 s.</jats:p></jats:list-item> <jats:list-item><jats:p>The transient increase in <jats:italic>ϕ</jats:italic>, which was consistent with model prediction, indicated that capacity to assimilate CO<jats:sub>2</jats:sub> into the C<jats:sub>3</jats:sub> cycle in the bundle sheath failed to keep pace with the rate of dicarboxylate delivery by the C<jats:sub>4</jats:sub> cycle. Because nonsteady‐state light conditions are the norm in field canopies, the results suggest that <jats:italic>ϕ</jats:italic> in these major crops in the field is significantly higher and energy conversion efficiency lower than previous measured values under steady‐state conditions.</jats:p></jats:list-item> </jats:list> </jats:p>
