The antigenic relatedness of minute virus of mice (MVM), Kilham rat virus (KR), H-1 virus (H-1), haemorrhagic encephalopathy of rats virus (HER), porcine parvovirus (PPV), canine parvovirus (CPV), feline panleukopenia virus (FPV), goose parvovirus (GPV) and bovine parvovirus (BPV) was studied by immunofluorescence microscopy (FA) and by serum neutralization (SN). An antigenically related group comprising MVM, KR, HER, PPV, CPV and FPV was recognized by FA and most reactions within the group were reciprocal. Antigenic relatedness was less evident when the same viruses and antisera were tested by SN. Only CPV and FPV were closely and reciprocally related. Other cross-reactions by SN were quantitatively minor and included neutralization of CPV and FPV by pig anti-PPV serum and neutralization of H-1 and HER by rat anti-KR serum. Neither FA nor SN revealed any antigenic relationship of BPV and GPV either with each other or with any of the other viruses tested.
