The astronomical dark matter could be made of weakly interacting massive
species whose mutual annihilations should produce antimatter particles and
distortions in the corresponding energy spectra. The propagation of cosmic rays
inside the Milky Way plays a crucial role and is briefly presented. The
uncertainties in its description lead to considerable variations in the
predicted primary fluxes. This point is illustrated with antiprotons. Finally,
the various forthcoming projects are rapidly reviewed with their potential
reach.
