122 is flat in tendency, with the prime harmonics from 3 to 13 tuned flat. As an equal temperament, it tempers out 78732/78125 (sensipent comma) in the 5-limit; 225/224 in the 7-limit; 385/384 and 4000/3993 in the 11-limit; and 351/350 and 364/363 in the 13-limit. It provides the optimal patent val for the 7-limit tritonic temperament and the 11-limit tritoni temperament, and the planar temperament squalentine.
122 = 55 + 67, and so using the 122c val it is the convergent towards 1/6-comma meantone, with a fifth just a hundredth of a cent flatter.

Harmonic 25 (two 5/4 major thirds) is about halfway between 122edo's steps.
Subsets and supersets
Since 122 factors into 2 × 61, 122edo contains 2edo and 61edo as its subsets. 244edo (double 122edo) provides a good correction to harmonic 25.
