35edo can also represent the 2.3.5.7.11.17 [[subgroup]] and 2.9.5.7.11.17 subgroup, because of the accuracy of 9 and the flatness of the higher primes ([[7/5]] and [[17/11]] stand out, having less than 1 cent error). Therefore among [[whitewood]] tunings it is very versatile; you can switch between these different subgroups if you don't mind having to use two different 3/2s to reach the inconsistent 9 (a characteristic of whitewood tunings).

35edo has the optimal [[patent val]] for [[greenwood]] and [[secund]] temperaments, as well as 11-limit [[muggles]], and the 35f val is an excellent tuning for 13-limit muggles. 35edo is the largest edo with a lack of a [[diatonic scale]] (unless 7edo is considered a diatonic scale).
