Dr. Chris Marble currently serves as an Associate Professor in the Environmental Horticulture Department at the University of Florida’s Mid-Florida Research and Education Center in Apopka. Dr. Marble’s research and extension programming focus on the development of integrated weed management in ornamental crops during production and in the landscape. Current research efforts focus on developing systems-based approaches to weed control by investigating the impacts of production variables on herbicide performance, development of non-chemical weed control methods, evaluation of herbicide application equipment, and weed germination/growth in soilless container substrates.
