Background
Dahlia (Dahlia variabilis), a widely cultivated ornamental plant in Indonesia, is known to contain 84.08% inulin in its tubers. Numerous studies have demonstrated the antidiabetic potential of inulin from various plant sources. However, most of the research is in the form of a mixture of inulin with other active substances, and no one ha...

... Table 2 illustrates insulin expression in all groups. In Group I, all rats displayed insulin expression, whereas in Group II, only 75% exhibited insulin expression with weak intensity. The administration of inulin from dahlia tubers did not enhance insulin expression in diabetic rats, although 25% displayed strong insulin expression in Group III (Fig. ...

Dahlia (Dahlia Cav.) is an important ornamental plant used as cut flowers. Recently, we bred the “Eternity series” cultivars with long vase life to overcome the difficulty of long-distance transport due to their short vase life. However, dahlias, including the Eternity series, are ethylene-sensitive, inducing petal abscission within a short period....
