Rice or wheat (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

grain

'rice or wheat' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for grain that I've seen before include "Small hard particle, of rice perhaps" , "Pattern of lines in wood" , "bit of corn" , "eg Barley" , "Cereal crops" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today, The Washington Post, the Sydney Morning Herald, the L.A. Times Daily and the New York Times.
