Section V - Antigenic Relationship and Lack of Relationship to Other Viruses

An antigen prepared from Ieri virus failed to react in CF with the following mouse hyperimmune sera:



EEE	Spondweni	Chenuda
WEE	Zika	Anopheles A
Semliki	Makonde	Wad Medani
Chikungunya	Ntaya	Turlock
Sindbis	Oriboca	Bwamba
Ilheus	Marituba	Rift Valley fever
St. Louis	Apeu	Simbu
Dengue	Catu	Mengo
Yellow fever	Guama	Lukuni
Rio Bravo	Bimiti	Triniti
JBE	SF Naples	Nepuyo
West Nile	Tacaiuma	Tacaribe
RSSE	Quaranfil	GD VII

It was reported that a weak CF cross with Triniti and Aruac viruses had been observed [2] , but this could not be confirmed at TRVL nor by Downs [3] . It is, therefore, for the present listed as an ungrouped virus.

Arkonam virus is related to IFA and CF with Ieri and Gomoka viruses and weakly cross-reacts with Great Island and Lipovnik viruses. Arkonam, Gomoka and Ieri viruses now form the Ieri antigenic group [4] .
