General
Three slightly different drafts of a paper read at the Académie on 9 August 1765 on barley with branched culms. Annotations relate that the orge de miracle was shown at the Académie in 1764; that M. de Fouchy only wanted to make mention of this fact in the Histoire de l’Académie for 1765. This paper was printed in the Mémoire de l’Académie des Sciences, Paris 1765: 613–619. 1768.
