The Zarlino scale, or "just diatonic" as it's often called, is the scale 1-9/8-5/4-4/3-3/2-5/3-15/8-2, with three major and two minor triads. It has a characteristic polynomial x(x+1)(x^2-3)(x^3-x^2-7*x-3) = x^7 - 11x^5 - 10x^4 + 21x^3 + 30x^2 + 9x. From the coefficients of this we can read off that it has 11 dyads and 5 triads, and from the roots, we find that its automorphism group is an elementary 2-group--in fact, it is of order 2, with the nontrivial automorphism being inversion. The three connectivities, algebraic, vertex, and edge, are 0.914 ≤ 2 ≤ 2. The scales radius is 2 and its diameter is 3. Its genus, of course, is 0, but less obviously its maximal genus is 2.
