contents We show that a principally polarized abelian variety over a field $k$ is, as an abelian variety, a direct summand of a product of Jacobians of curves which contain a $k$-point if and only if the polarization and the minimal class are both algebraic over $k$. This extends results of Beckmann--de Gaay Fortman and Voisin over the complex numbers to arbitrary fields, and refines an obstruction to the direct summand property over $\mathbb{Q}$ due to Petrov--Skorobogatov. We also give applications to the integral Tate conjecture for divisors and for $1$-cycles on abelian varieties over finitely generated fields; our results also address a $p$-adic version of the integral Tate conjecture over finite fields of characteristic $p$, for the first time beyond the case of divisors.
