    Consider the coupled nonlinear reaction-diffusion equations \[ (1)\quad (u_ j)_ t-D^*_ j \nabla^ 2u_ j+\sum^{n}_{i=1}c_{ji}(u_ j)_{x_ i}+\sigma_ ju_ j=f_ j(u) \] (t,x)\(\in {\mathbb{R}}^{n+1}\), \(j=1,...,n\), where \(u=(u_ 1,...,u_ n)\), \(D^*_ j>0\), \(\sigma_ j\geq 0\), \(c_{ji}\) are some constants and \(f_ j\) are functions defined in \({\mathbb{R}}^ n\). The objective of this paper is to show the existence of an almost periodic plane wave solution to the system (1). The method of proof is to perform (1) to a new form which together with a periodicity condition is shown to be equivalent to a certain integral equation obtained by the construction of a suitable Green's function.
