If it's "natural" minor than it's the same series, but starting on the equivalent of degree 6 in the major: i: min7 ii: -7 III: maj7 iv: min7 v: min7 VI: maj7 VII: dom7 Harmonic minor has a raised 7 which changes all odd degrees: i: min/maj7 ii: -7 III: maj7+5 iv: min7 V: dom7 VI: maj7 vii: dim7 As a subtle point, I would always use lower case for minor chords.
