The designation MSL stands for Male Sterility Line. The use of such lines allows breeders to prevent self-pollination of plants and ensure cross-pollination with another parental component to manifest the heterosis effect.
This object appears in official breeding bulletins as an identifier of genetic material undergoing testing or registration procedures. Since the line is an auxiliary breeding tool, yield, height, or disease resistance metrics are not regulated for it.
