Il virus Royal Farm, precedentemente noto come virus Karshi, (Royal Farm virus, RFV) è un arbovirus della famiglia dei Flaviviridae, genere Flavivirus, appartiene al IV gruppo dei virus a ((+) ssRNA). Esso non era considerato patogeno o dannoso per l'uomo. Sebbene le persone infette soffrano di sintomi simili alla febbre, alcune persone in Uzbekistan hanno riferito di malattie gravi come l'encefalite e altri focolai di malattia febbrili collegati all'infezione con il virus.

Il ciclo di trasmissione dei membri del complesso M-TBFV coinvolge zecche ixodidi e roditori. Non sono disponibili informazioni sufficienti sullo sviluppo del virus negli ospiti di roditori, quindi molti ricercatori hanno dovuto infettare i topi con l'ago o permettendo a una zecca infetta di nutrirsi di essi. Le zecche esposte al virus Royal Farm sono rimaste portatrici efficienti anche se testate circa 8 anni dopo la loro esposizione iniziale. A causa di questa intuizione, queste zecche possono servire come meccanismo di mantenimento a lungo termine per il virus Royal Farm.
