Stress line of descent (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

strain

I believe this is a triple definition!

'stress' is the first definition.
(synonyms)

'line' is the second definition.
(synonyms)

'of' is a link.

'descent' is the third definition.
(thesaurus)

(Other definitions for strain that I've seen before include "Blood" , "Tension - stock" , "song" , "Wrench; melody" , "Noted" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
