In her most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Ecology
  • Botany
  • Gene

Her scientific interests lie mostly in Botany, Trichome, Betula pendula, Stomatal conductance and Relative humidity. Elina Oksanen is interested in Betula pubescens, which is a field of Botany. Her Trichome study combines topics in areas such as Biotic stress, Oxidative stress and Ozone.

Her studies deal with areas such as Water stress, Germplasm, DNA sequencing and Water content as well as Betula pendula. Elina Oksanen has researched Stomatal conductance in several fields, including Catalase, Productivity, Lipid peroxidation, Horticulture and Biomass.
