Crossword Genius

Urges one to become bountiful (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

generous

'bountiful' is the definition.
('generous' can be similar in meaning to 'bountiful')

'urges one to become' is the wordplay.
'to become' indicates anagramming the letters.
'urges'+'one'='urgesone'
'urgesone' with letters rearranged gives 'GENEROUS'.

(Other definitions for generous that I've seen before include "Lavish" , "Charitable" , "Munificent; liberal" , "Showing largess" , "Benevolent, big-hearted" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
