On the N=1 beta-function from the conifold
  We obtain the correct all-loop beta-function of pure N=1 super Yang-Mills theory from the supergravity solution of the warped deformed conifold, including also some nonperturbative corrections. The crucial ingredient is the gauge-gravity relation that can be inferred by taking into account the phenomenon of gaugino condensation.
