The present study explored the use of anatomical characters of Sataria barbata and Brachiaria deflexia as indicators of waste engine oil pollution. Four (4) kg of air dried soil was measured into perforated plastic buckets and treated with waste engine oil to obtain different concentrations [0% (control), 2%, 4%, 7% and 10%] on volume to weight basis. The experiment was set up in 3 replicates. The soil samples were allowed to stand for seven days before seedlings were planted. The plants were harvested after 8 weeks of transplanting.
