Crossword Genius

Genius can somehow be endless (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

unceasing

'endless' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'genius can somehow' is the wordplay.
'somehow' indicates an anagram.
'genius'+'can'='geniuscan'
'geniuscan' with letters rearranged gives 'UNCEASING'.

'be' is the link.

(Other definitions for unceasing that I've seen before include "Continuous" , "Not stopping" , "Endless" , "Never-ending" , "Never ending" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
