Dec 2, 2013 at 9:59 comment added Naga Venkata No. The ideal of $2l+C'$ does not contain the ideal of the plane. See "Le Schema de Hilbert des Courbes gauches localement Cohen-Macualay n'est (presque) jamais reduit" by M Martin-Descamps and D. Perrin Proposition $0.6$ for such examples.
Dec 2, 2013 at 8:51 comment added abx Sorry I don't get it. You say that "$C'$ is a reduced plane curve lying on the same plane as $l$". Doesn't that mean that $C$ is the curve $2l+C'$ in that plane?
Dec 2, 2013 at 8:37 comment added Naga Venkata $C$ is not necessarily a plane curve. I do not know how else to write it. I meant that the curve is the scheme associated to an effective divisor on a surface. Using the adjunction formula one sees that the arithmetic genus depends on the degree of the surface. For example take a smooth surface containing $l, C'$. This will also contain the curve $2l+C'$ as a Weil divisor. But the genus depends on the degree of the surface.
