title: [Unit activities of the salmon Salmo salar preoptic nucleus in Parr, Parr-Smolt and Smolt stadia].
abstract: The olfactory and gustatory stimulations with NaCl (10(-5)-10(-2) M/1) bring about certain typical modifications of the preoptic cells activity in the case of "Parr" and "Parr smolt". The "on" or "off" or "on and off" effects are very marked. Unlike the "Smolt" stage is accompanied by an important decrease of the preoptic cells activity, sometimes until complete silence of the nucleus.
  
  
  METHODS
  sequential analysis and statistical analysis. The activities recorded on a magnetic tape are feld to a mini computer.
