Organism in the early stages of development (6)

I believe the answer is:

embryo

(Other definitions for embryo that I've seen before include "potential issue?" , "Developing offspring" , "Pre-foetus stage" , "My robe (anag)" , "Animal in early stage, before birth" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
