Non-isogenous elliptic curves and hyperelliptic jacobians

Let $K$ be a field of characteristic different from $2$, $\bar{K}$ its algebraic closure. Let $n \ge 3$ be an odd prime such that $2$ is a primitive root modulo $n$. Let $f(x)$ and $h(x)$ be degree $n$ polynomials with coefficients in $K$ and without repeated roots. Let us consider genus $(n-1)/2$ hyperelliptic curves $C_f: y^2=f(x)$ and $C_h: y^2=h(x)$, and their jacobians $J(C_f)$ and $J(C_h)$, which are $(n-1)/2$-dimensional abelian varieties defined over $K$. Suppose that one of the polynomials is irreducible and the other reducible. We prove that if $J(C_f)$ and $J(C_h)$ are isogenous over $\bar{K}$ then both jacobians are abelian varieties of CM type with multiplication by the field of $n$th roots of $1$. We also discuss the case when both polynomials are irreducible while their splitting fields are linearly disjoint. In particular, we prove that if $char(K)=0$, the Galois group of one of the polynomials is doubly transitive and the Galois group of the other is a cyclic group of order $n$, then $J(C_f)$ and $J(C_h)$ are not isogenous over $\bar{K}$
