The invention aims to provide a recombinant canine measles virus expressing luciferase NLuc. The structure of a recombinant CMV nucleic acid fragment for rescuing and expressing NLuc is 5'-N-P-NLuc-M-F-H-L-3', wherein N, P, M, F, H and L are structural genes of the virus; NLuc is ORF of luciferase, the upstream of the ORF contains an M gene initiation sequence and a Not I restriction enzyme cutting site, and the downstream contains a Pme I restriction enzyme cutting site and a P gene termination sequence. The rCMV-NLuc rescued by a reverse genetic technology has a high expression level on NLucin cells, and can emit macroscopic light blue fluorescence under the action of a luminescent substrate furimazine. The insertion of an exogenous gene does not significantly affect the growth kineticsof the virus, and the exogenous gene is relatively stable in the virus passage process.
