A '''minor triad''' is a [[triad]] comprising a root, [[minor]] third, and fifth.
 
== In just intonation ==
 
In the [[7-limit]]:
* [[6:7:9]], a ''subminor triad'', is a [[9-odd-limit]] chord that tunes the third flatter than the 5-limit minor.
 
In the [[5-limit]]:
* [[10:12:15]] is found on the iii ({{Frac|5|4}}) and vi ({{Frac|5|3}}) of Ptolemy's intense diatonic scale ([[Zarlino]]), perhaps the most common 5-limit diatonic.
* [[27:32:40]] is found on the ii ({{Frac|9|8}}) of Ptolemy's intense diatonic scale.
 
In the [[3-limit]]:
* [[54:64:81]] is found on the ii ({{Frac|9|8}}), iii ({{Frac|81|64}}), and vi ({{Frac|27|16}}) of the Pythagorean diatonic scale.
