Section V - Antigenic Relationship and Lack of Relationship to Other Viruses
Moriche virus is a member of the Capim group as shown by CF results.
In CF Bushbush antigen reacts to titer with Moriche serum. Moriche antigen also reacts with Bushbush serum. Capim and Guajara antigens react with Moriche serum to titers 1/8 and 1/4 of the homologous titer. Moriche antigen did not react with Capim, Guajara and Mirim sera.
In N tests, Moriche and Bushbush viruses were found to be different.
SIRACA considers Moriche virus to be a distinct virus type in the Acara complex of the Capim serogroup [4] .
