The subject matter of the Krshna Yajurveda is more or less the same as the Shukla Yajurveda. The only difference being that the Shukla Yajurveda gives only the mantras pertaining to the Yajna rituals while the Krshna Yajurveda also adds the pertinent brahmana sections.
The subject matter of the Krshna Yajurveda is more or less the same as the Shukla Yajurveda. The only difference being that the Shukla Yajurveda gives only the mantras pertaining to the Yajna rituals while the Krshna Yajurveda also adds the pertinent brahmana sections. It is said that there 85 branches of the Krshna Yajurveda of which only 4 of them are extent today with their respective Samhitas. They are described in brief below:
=== तैत्तिरीयसंहिता ॥ ===
=== तैत्तिरीयसंहिता ॥ Taittiriya Samhita ===
The Taittiriya Samhita is prevalent in the Southern regions of India including some parts of Maharashtra and the whole of Andhra and Dravida regions. The speciality of this shakha lies in its ability to have maintained its textual heritage inclusive of the Samhita, brahmana, aranyaka, upanishad, shrautasutras as well as the grhya sutra intact over the years.
The Taittiriya Samhita is organised into 7 kandas, 44 prapathakas and 631 anuvakas. And like the Shukla Yajurveda it includes descriptions of Paurodasha, Yajamana, Vajapeya, Rajasuya, etc.
=== कठसंहिता ॥ ===
Sayanacharya belonged to this shakha and has written a commentary on the same. However, Bhatta Bhaskara's commentary known as Jnana Yajna that provides the adhyatma and adhidaiva perspectives to mantras apart from the adhiyajna meaning preceeds that of Sayanacharya's and is equally scholarly in approach.<ref name=":0" />

=== मैत्रायणीसंहिता ॥ Maitrayani Samhita ===
=== कठसंहिता ॥ Katha Samhita ===
