Correlating to this, about 15/16 recensions of the Shukla Yajurveda are known while the Krishna Yajurveda is deemed to have had as many as 86 recensions. However, only two recensions of the Shukla Yajurveda, Madhyandina and Kanva, have survived into the modern times. The others are known only by name from their mentions in other texts. While the Krshna Yajurveda has survived in four recensions. In contrast to the two recensions of the Shukla Yajurveda that are nearly the same, except for few differences, the four surviving recensions of Krishna Yajurveda are very different versions.<ref name="prabhakar">CL Prabhakar (1972), [https://kramerius.lib.cas.cz/search/localPrintPDF?pids=uuid:79893c82-3e48-11e1-bdd3-005056a60003,uuid:79a8d273-3e48-11e1-bdd3-005056a60003,uuid:79c7a514-3e48-11e1-bdd3-005056a60003,uuid:79e4ca05-3e48-11e1-bdd3-005056a60003,uuid:7a021606-3e48-11e1-bdd3-005056a60003,uuid:7a1e2987-3e48-11e1-bdd3-005056a60003,uuid:7a3b7588-3e48-11e1-bdd3-005056a60003&pagesize=A4&imgop=FULL The Recensions of the Sukla Yajurveda], Archív Orientální, Volume 40, Issue 1.</ref>
