Crossword Genius

Abandoned bore (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

yielded

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'abandoned' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'bore' is the second definition.
('yield' can be a synonym of 'bear')

(Other definitions for yielded that I've seen before include "Generated (financial return)" , "Submitted" , "ended resistance" , "Capitulated" , "Produced; surrendered" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
