7d "Parasitic threat to crops having one lower supply" (7)

E???O?M Can only see EELWORM for parasitic threat, but if so can't see the parsing

10a "Couple dance miss work" (5) G???P

If EELWORM is right for 7d then can only see GALOP for dance, but again don't see the parsing.


Any help much appreciated

Gooner, I've got the paper version and the clue for 7 D is

Parasitic threat to crops having me lower supply - so an anagram of 'me lower' gives Eelworm.

10 A Galop is a dance for two, a couple dance. Gal = miss and Op = work.

Glad I could help, Gooner. I thought it might be a case of there being a slight variation in the online version.
