Bradley did two test PCR experiments with his phage genomic DNA. For one experiment he used G cluster primers and for the other experiment he used B1 cluster primers. After running the PCR reactions on an agarose gel, he saw positive bands in the lanes for both cluster primers. Assuming that he completed the experiment correctly, what is the best explanation for this result? O His phage belongs to both the G and B1 clusters His phage has regions of DNA that are similar to regions found in both G and B1 cluster phages O His phage belongs to neither the G nor the B1 cluster
