Abstract. Here we study the existence of codimension one subvarieties of
parametrizing curves with very low gonality with respect to balanced line bundles (i.e. the line bundles with multidegrees satisfying certain inequalities introduced by D. Gieseker and L. Caporaso). We also study the gonality sequence of certain hyperelliptic stable curves.
