<p style='text-indent:20px;'>The main purpose of the present paper is to study the blow-up problem of a weakly coupled quasilinear parabolic system as follows:</p><p style='text-indent:20px;'><disp-formula> <label/> <tex-math id="FE1"> \begin{document}$ \left\{ \begin{array}{ll} u_{t} = \nabla\cdot\left(r(u)\nabla u\right)+f(u,v,x,t), & \\ v_{t} = \nabla\cdot\left(s(v)\nabla v\right)+g(u,v,x,t) &{\rm in} \ \Omega\times(0,t^{*}), \\ \frac{\partial u}{\partial\nu} = h(u), \ \frac{\partial v}{\partial\nu} = k(v) &{\rm on} \ \partial\Omega\times(0,t^{*}), \\ u(x,0) = u_{0}(x), \ v(x,0) = v_{0}(x) &{\rm in} \ \overline{\Omega}. \end{array} \right. $\end{document} </tex-math></disp-formula></p><p style='text-indent:20px;'>Here <inline-formula><tex-math id="M1">\begin{document}$ \Omega $\end{document}</tex-math></inline-formula> is a spatial bounded region in <inline-formula><tex-math id="M2">\begin{document}$ \mathbb{R}^{n} \ (n\geq2) $\end{document}</tex-math></inline-formula> and the boundary <inline-formula><tex-math id="M3">\begin{document}$ \partial\Omega $\end{document}</tex-math></inline-formula> of the spatial region <inline-formula><tex-math id="M4">\begin{document}$ \Omega $\end{document}</tex-math></inline-formula> is smooth. We give a sufficient condition to guarantee that the positive solution <inline-formula><tex-math id="M5">\begin{document}$ (u,v) $\end{document}</tex-math></inline-formula> of the above problem must be a blow-up solution with a finite blow-up time <inline-formula><tex-math id="M6">\begin{document}$ t^* $\end{document}</tex-math></inline-formula>. In addition, an upper bound on <inline-formula><tex-math id="M7">\begin{document}$ t^* $\end{document}</tex-math></inline-formula> and an upper estimate of the blow-up rate on <inline-formula><tex-math id="M8">\begin{document}$ (u,v) $\end{document}</tex-math></inline-formula> are obtained.</p>
