- Linkage (styled as LINKAGE) is the third album by J-pop singer Mami Kawada. It was released on March 24, 2010 under Geneon Universal Entertainment. This album contains thirteen tracks which includes her singles "PSI-Missing", "Masterpiece" and "Prophecy". ...
- Genetic linkage is a term which describes the tendency of certain loci or alleles to be inherited together. Genetic loci on the same chromosome are physically close to one another and tend to stay together during meiosis, and are thus genetically linked.
- In linguistics, a linkage is a group of undoubtedly related languages for which no proto-language can be reconstructed. Common to linkages are defining features absent from its geographic extremes. A linkage may result when the members of a dialect chain diverge while sharing subsequent innovations.
- A mechanical linkage is a series of rigid links connected with joints to form a closed chain, or a series of closed chains. Each link has two or more joints, and the joints have various degrees of freedom to allow motion between the links. ...
