Abstract: The result achieved in the present study explore clearly that the used techniques were unable to indicate any antigenic relationship between bovine ephemeral fever (BEF) and rabies viruses although both viruses are of lyssaviruses of the family Rhabdoviridae. Serum neutralization and agar gel precipitation tests were used. the results of both techniques showed that each of BEF and rabies viruses was able to generate a protective level of immunity in vaccinated mice and rats. Moreover the challenge of vaccinated and boostered mice ans rats revealed that such animals were unable to face the heterologous challenge virus while they withstood the challenge with the homologous virus resulted in protection percentage of 1.6-0 and 83.3-100, respectively
