selenium error - Unable to locate select element

Please find the html code below :

<div class="col-lg-3 col-md-4">
      <select ui-select2="ui-select2" name="dealer" id="selected_dsd" ng-init="delegate.init()" ng-model="selectedMainStoreTest" ng-change="delegate.getBranchDealers()">
        <option value="">{{'manageChargeCodes.form.fields.choose' |translate}}</option>
        <option ng-repeat="dealer in mainStoreDealerList" value="{{dealer}}">{{dealer.id}} - {{dealer.name}}</option>
      </select>
</div>

From the below code i will get some list of options, and i have to get the selected values using XPath

<option ng-repeat="dealer in mainStoreDealerList" value="{{dealer}}">{{dealer.id}} - {{dealer.name}}</option>

Please find by below code that am using to get the selected value 

@FindBy(xpath = "//*[@id=\"select2-result-label-90\"]")
private WebElement mainStoreDealersSelector;

public void selectMainStoreDealers(String mainStoreDealer) {
     System.out.println("Xpath--->"+mainStoreDealersSelector);
     selectFromDropDown(mainStoreDealersSelector, mainStoreDealer);
     System.out.println("Completed....");
}

And am getting the below results while am printing it.

Try using the "ID" selector ,sometimes when xpath fails we use CSS properties to select an element.

@FindBy(id="selected_dsd")

There's no element with select2-result-label-90 id in your HTML. If you are trying to select the "select" element, the proper xpath would be

@FindBy(xpath = "//*[@id='selected_dsd']")
