The charged lepton masses obey to high precision the so-called Koide relation. We propose a generalization of this relation to quarks. It includes up and down quarks of the three generations and is numerically reasonably close to the Koide limit.

A minimization theorem for the Koide ratio and its Standard Model calibration
Extending any positive-mass set by one particle minimizes the Koide ratio to Q0/(1+Q0) at m* = [(sum mi)/(sum sqrt(mi))]^2; adding the charm mass to leptons yields a value only 6 ppm above the ideal 2/5.
