In 2015, several virus-like symptoms were observed in passion fruit (PF) plants in Bahia state, Brazil. Using HTS technology, bioinformatics tools, RT-PCR, and Sanger sequencing, we identified the cucurbit aphid-borne yellows virus (CABYV, <i>Polerovirus</i>, <i>Solemoviridae</i>) in co-infection with cowpea aphid-borne mosaic virus (CABMV, <i>Potyvirus</i>, <i>Potyviridae</i>) in PF, in green manure, and spontaneous plants in several localities in Bahia. Complete genomes of CABYV-PF isolates were determined and analyzed with other CABYV isolates available in GenBank that have been identified in various countries.
