Walking solutions in the string background dual to N=1 SQCD-like theories

A new solution in the string background dual to N = 1 SQCD-like theories is presented. The gauge coupling in this solution has walking property. The Wilson loop calculations show that quark anti-quark potential makes phase transitions. Additionally the effect of flavours on other solutions in this background is investigated by considering some unflavoured solutions and perturbing them with small parameter x = N-j/N-i.
