linkage

1. the connection between different atoms in a chemical compound, or the symbol representing it in structural formulae. See also bond.

2. in genetics, the association of genes having located on the same chromosome, which results in the tendency of a group of such nonallelic genes to be associated in inheritance (linkage disequilibrium). Called also syntenic group.

disequilibrium linkage

the inheritance of two alleles together at a higher than expected frequency.
