Linkage occurs between two genes when they are so near (less than 50 for Complete linkage and more than 50 but not more than 100 for Incomplete linkage) that they cannot undergo crossing over during meiosis and thus dont give new type of gametes which later could give recombinant(new type different than parents) character...
genetic drift may occur when a small group of individuals colonizes a new habitat
genetic linkage?
Mutations and genetic shuffling are two actions that occur during sexual reproductions. These scientific actions are both sources of genetic variation.

what is a linkage linkage happens when a particular genetic loci or allele for genes are inherited jointly.
Genetic linkage
Genetic map is a graphic representation of a linkage group in the form of line which shows by points the sequence of the genes and the relative distances between the genes it contains. Genetic map is called a linkage map, or chromosome map.
Genetic linkage was first discovered by the British geneticists William Bateson and Reginald Punnett shortly after Mendel's laws were rediscovered. The understanding of genetic linkage was expanded by the work of Thomas Hunt Morgan. Morgan's observation that the amount of crossing over between linked genes differs led to the idea that crossover frequency might indicate the distance separating genes on the chromosome. Alfred Sturtevant, a student of Morgan's, first developed genetic maps, also known as linkage maps.

Genetic linkage analysis
Genetic variation
No. Linkage studies use markers to identify chromosomal regions that may be linked to disease. Twin and adoption studies establish heritability and thus the genetic basis of a disease, not which chromosome or chromosomal region may be implicated. For this reason they are called genetic epidemiological studies.
Genetic drift has a larger effect on smaller populations.
