Theory
In the patent val, 97edo tempers out 875/864, 4000/3969 and 1029/1024 in the 7-limit, 245/242, 100/99, 385/384 and 441/440 in the 11-limit, and 196/195, 352/351 and 676/675 in the 13-limit. It provides the optimal patent val for the 13-limit 41&97 temperament tempering out 100/99, 196/195, 245/242 and 385/384.

Subsets and supersets
97edo is the 25th prime edo.
388edo and 2619edo, which contain 97edo as a subset, have very high consistency limits - 37 and 33 respectively. 3395edo, which divides the edostep in 35, is a zeta edo. The berkelium temperament realizes some relationships between them through a regular temperament perspective.
JI approximation
97edo has very poor direct approximation for superparticular intervals among edos up to 200, and the worst for intervals up to 9/8 among edos up to 100. It has errors of well above one standard deviation (about 15.87%) in superparticular intervals with denominators up to 14. The first good approximation is the 16/15 semitone using the 9th note, with an error of 3%, meaning 97edo can be used as a rough version of 16/15 equal-step tuning.
Since 97edo is a prime edo, it lacks specific modulation circles, symmetrical chords or sub-edos that are present in composite edos. When notable equal divisions like 19, 31, 41, or 53 have strong JI-based harmony, 97edo does not have easily representable modulation because of its inability to represent superparticulars. However, this might result in interest in this tuning through JI-agnostic approaches.
