Apparently I can answer my own question.
From the contents of the book:
http://www.aw-bc.com/info/database/elmasri.html
FUNDAMENTALS OF DATABASE SYSTEMS, WITH E-BOOK, 3/e
Elmasri/Navathe
ISBN: 0-201-74153-9
"
8. SQL-The Relational Database Standard.
...
10. Examples of Relational Database Management Systems: Oracle and Microsoft
Access.
"
Thus we can conclude that MySQL is 'Elmasri-Navathe-relational'.
