Root vegetable producing sugar (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

beet

'root vegetable producing sugar' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for beet that I've seen before include "Plant grown for sugar" , "An edible root plant" , "Root, maybe source of sugar" , "Source of food" , "E.g. chard, mangelwurzel" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
