With an evolutionary synthesis code, I follow the evolution of a starburst composed of massive close binaries (MCBs) and of single stars at various metallicities. Evolutionary tracks for MCBs have been developed in collaboration with D. Vanbeveren and C. de Loore. The models reproduce the observed WR/O ratio in the Magellanic Clouds.
