Abstract

The existing grids of star models without rotation allow us to already explain a number of properties of massive and WR stars (cf. Maeder and Conti,1994). In particular, the sequences of star clusters are well reproduced, as well as the relations of filiation between the various kinds of massive stars: O-type stars, blue-and red-supergiants, Wolf-Rayet (WR) stars. The observed abundances of CNO elements in WN stars and of He, C, O and Ne in WC stars are nicely accounted for, as well as the luminosities of WR stars, the number ratios WR/O and WC/WN in galaxies of various metallicities. The consequences of mass loss for the chemical yields are quite important and allow us in particular to understand the evolution of the CNO elements during the galactic history.
