Résumé anglais Note concerning the implicit quotations in Chinese technical texts In differentiated ways, depending on whether they deal with botany, agriculture or horticulture, Chinese technical texts make sustained use of quotation. The author describes here the various kinds of marking used to bring quotation to the attention of the reader, and analyses different modalities of its production. The comparison of an extract from the Bencao gangmu by Li Shizhen (1596) and of its source - which it omits to mention, without enabling the reader to determine the reasons for this omission - illuminates the way in which the botanist braids the text of the quotation with his own additions to, or emphasises how he truncates it. Again, the contrasting of this same extract by Li Shizhen and its reclamation, in the context of agriculture, by Chen Haozi' Huajing (1688) enables us to observe another way of quoting a text, which has now become classic : reformulation.
