Let Mg be the moduli space of smooth curves of genus g [ges ] 3, and g the Deligne-Mumford compactification in terms of stable curves. Let g[1] be an open set of g consisting of stable curves of genus g with one node at most. In this paper, we determine the necessary and sufficient condition to guarantee that a $\open Q$-divisor D on g is nef over g[1], that is, (D · C) [ges ] 0 for all irreducible curves C on M¯g with C ∩ M¯g[1] ≠ [empty ].
