Abstract The distribution of deformed wing virus infection within the honey bee reproductive castes queens drones was investigated by in situ hybridization and immunohistology from paraffin embedded sections. Digoxygenin or fluorochrome end-labelled nucleotide probes hybridizing to the 3 portion of the DWV genome were used to identify DWV RNA while a monospecific antibody to the DWV-VP1 structural protein was used to identify viral proteins and particles. The histological data were confirmed by quantitative RT-PCR of dissected organs. Results showed that DWV infection is not restricted to the digestive tract of the bee but spread in the
