To see how close genes are on chromosomes. When crossing over occurs you can tell haw close genes are by the traits expressed independently. I f not expressed independently then these genes are probably linked by being close together on the chromosome and traveling as a pair during crossing over. A student of Thomas Hunt Morgan come up with the mathematical analysis of this phenomenom.
Linkage map: A map of the genes on a chromosome based on linkage analysis. A linkage map does not show the physical distances between genes but rather their relative positions, as determined by how often two gene loci are inherited together.

Genetic linkage analysis
To create a linkage map for genetic analysis, one must first identify genetic markers that are inherited along with the gene of interest. These markers are then used to track the inheritance patterns of the gene through generations. By analyzing the frequency of recombination events between the gene and the markers, the relative positions of the gene and markers on a chromosome can be determined, creating a linkage map.
In genetic linkage analysis, 50 recombination is the maximum value because it indicates that the two genes are located far apart on the same chromosome, making them more likely to be separated during the process of genetic recombination. Beyond 50, the genes are considered unlinked and will assort independently during inheritance.
what kind of linkage are you referring to? shift linkage, gas pedal linkage, clutch linkage....ect.ect.ect
forward linkage
The 1999 Nissan windshield wiper linkage is held in place by three retaining nuts. Remove the retaining nuts and the linkage will come free. Replace the linkage with new linkage.
what is a linkage linkage happens when a particular genetic loci or allele for genes are inherited jointly.
Industrial linkage refers to the relationships and connections between different industries within an economy. These linkages can occur through the production process, supply chains, or shared markets. Understanding industrial linkages is important for economic analysis and policy-making to identify opportunities for growth and development.
