Abstract: Motivated by results of Mestre and Voisin, in this note we mainly consider abelian varieties isogenous to hyperelliptic Jacobians In the first part we prove that a very general hyperelliptic Jacobian of genus $gge4$ is not isogenous to a non-hyperelliptic Jacobian. As a consequence we obtain that the Intermediate Jacobian of a very general cubic threefold is not isogenous to a Jacobian. Another corollary tells that the Jacobian of a very general $d$-gonal curve of genus $gge4$ is not isogenous to a different Jacobian. In the second part we consider a closed subvariety $mathcalYsubsetmathcal{A}_g$ of the moduli space of principally polarized varieties of dimension $gge3$. We show that if a very general element of $mathcalY$ is dominated by a hyperelliptic Jacobian, then $dimmathcalYge2g$. In particular, if the general element in $mathcalY$ is simple, its Kummer variety does not contain rational curves. Finally we show that a closed subvariety $mathcalYsubsetmathcal{M}_g$ of dimension $2g-1$ such that the Jacobian of a very general element of $mathcalY$ is dominated by a hyperelliptic Jacobian is contained either in the hyperelliptic or in the trigonal locus.
