This article is simply a list of traits commonly observed in beef cattle. Some traits are ERTs, depending on the marketing efforts of an individual producer. When a trait is not an ERT, it is then an indicator trait. Most of the entries in this table have links to a specific article with details about that trait.
Authors, please feel free to add to this table, even if there is no specific linkable article with more details.
