Polyphenol oxidase (PPO) is highly related to undesirable brown discoloration of wheat-based end products such as noodles. It is important to identify molecular markers associated with PPO activities for marker-assisted selection (MAS) for wheat quality improvement. A total of 203 Chinese winter wheat cultivars and lines were analyzed to investigate the correlation of PPO activities with a SSR（simple sequence repeat）marker Xgwm312. The results indicated that a fragment with 198 bp is apparently correlated with high PPO activities in wheat grain. The marker Xgwm312 can be used for MAS for PPO activities.
