Abstract
We derive general covariant coupled equations of QCD describing the tetraquark in terms of a mix of four-quark states $2q2\bar q$, and two-quark states $q\bar q$. The coupling of $2q2\bar q$ to $q\bar q$ states is achieved by a simple contraction of a four-quark $q\bar q$-irreducible Green function down to a two-quark $q\bar q$ Bethe-Salpeter kernel. The resulting tetraquark equations are expressed in an exact field theoretic form, and are in agreement with those obtained previously by consideration of disconnected interactions; however, despite being more general, they have been derived here in a much simpler and more transparent way.
