      Let \(L\) be an odd unimodular lattice of rank \(n\). Let \(L_0\) denote the sublattice of even norm vectors with \(L_2\) the unique non-trivial coset in \(L\), and let \(L_1\) and \(L_3\) be the other two cosets in \(L^*_0\) with the shadow \(S=L_1 \cup L_3\). The theta series of \(L_1\) and \(L_3\) are evaluated through the Jacobi theta series attached to \(L\) and to a certain vector. An analogous theorem for codes over \({\mathbb Z}_{2k}\) is derived. Some applications are considered when theta series can be calculated explicitly.
