Displaces (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

uproots

'displaces' is the definition.
('uproot' can be a synonym of 'displace')

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for uproots that I've seen before include "Pulls (a plant) out of the ground" , "Displaces -- or put so (anag)" , "tears out of bed" , "Completely destroys" , "Tears from natural habitat or ground" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
