The disciples of Vaishampayana established the schools of Krishna Yajurveda. The Krishna Yajurveda is known to have 86 branches. However, mention of only 43 out of these 86 schools are found in Puranas and other texts. Even amongst these 43, some are known only by name.<ref>Ganga Sagar Rai (1965), [https://archive.org/details/puranavolvii015193mbp/page/n247/mode/2up?view=theater Sakhas of the Krsna Yajurveda in the Puranas], Purana (Vol 7, No. 2), Varanasi: All India Kashiraj Trust.</ref>
The disciples of Vaishampayana established the schools of Krishna Yajurveda. The Krishna Yajurveda is known to have 86 branches. However, mention of only 43 out of these 86 schools are found in Puranas and other texts. Even amongst these 43, some are known only by name.
The Yajurveda was taught by Vyasa to one of his pupils, named Vaisampayana who divided it into eighty-six shakhas and taught it to his pupils.3 So Vaishampayana is said to be the original propagator of the Sakhas of the KYV. It was he from whom sprang all the sakhas of the KYV. This was the reason why Sabarasvamin regarded him as Sarvasakhadhyayi.
In the Vayu-Purana the following description of the Sakhas of the KYV. is given :
वैशम्पायनगोत्रोऽसौ यजुर्वेदं व्यकल्पयत् । षडशीतिस्तु येनोक्ताः संहिता यजुषां शुभाः ॥
शिष्येभ्यः प्रददौ ताश्च जगृहुस्ते विधानतः । एकस्तत्र परित्यक्तो याज्ञवल्क्यो महातपाः ॥
षडशीतिस्तु तस्यापि संहितानां विकल्पकाः । सर्वेषामेव तेषां वै त्रिधा भेदाः प्रकीर्तिताः ॥
त्रिधा भेदास्तु ते प्रोक्ता भेदेऽस्मिन्नवमे शुभे । उदीच्या मध्यदेशाश्च प्राच्याश्चैव पृथग्विधाः ॥
श्यामायनिरुदीच्यानां प्रधानः सम्बभूव ह । मध्यदेशप्रतिष्ठानामारुणिः प्रथमः स्मृतः ॥
आलम्बिरादिः प्राच्यानां त्रयोदश्यास्तु ते । इत्येते चरकाः प्रोक्ताः संहितावादिनो द्विजाः ॥ ६१.५-१०
The Brahmanda-Purana also says the same thing :
वैशंपायनशिष्योऽसौ यजुर्वेदमकल्पयत् ।। षडशीतिस्तु तेनोक्ताः संहिता यजुषां शुभाः ।। ३५.८ ।।
शिष्येभ्यः प्रददौ ताश्च जगूहुस्ते विधानतः ।। एकस्तत्र परित्यक्तो या५वल्क्यो महातपाः ।। ३५.९ ।।
षडशीतिस्तथा शिष्याः संहितानां विकल्पकाः ।। सर्वेषामेव तेषां वै त्रिधा भेदाः प्रकीर्त्तिताः ।। ३५.१० ।।
त्रिधा भेदास्तु ते वेदभेदेऽस्मिन्नवमे शुभे ।। उदीच्या मध्यदेश्याश्च प्राच्यश्चैव पृथग्विधाः ।। ३५.११ ।।
श्यामायनिरुदीच्यानां प्रधानः संबभूव ह ।। मध्यदेशप्रतिष्ठाता चासुरिः प्रथमः स्मृतः ।। ३५.१२ ।।
आलंबिरादिः प्राच्यानां त्रयोदेश्यादयस्तु ते ।। इत्येते चरकाः प्रोक्ताः संहिता वादिनो द्विजाः ।। ३५.१३ ।।<ref name=":1" />
The Agni-Purana briefly mentions the Sakhas of the KYV

In the Visnu and the Bhag. Pura, the Sakhas of the KYV. are not mentioned. Only reference is made to the Taittiriyas.

According to the Caranavyuha of Saunaka, among the eighty-six Sakhas of the KYV. twelve are the- sub-divisions of the Carakas, six of the Maitrayamyas, two of the Taittirlyas and five of the Khandikeyas.1 According to the Mahabhashya Vaisampayana had nine pupils. In the Atharvan Caranavyuha fourteen Sakhas are mentioned.8 The list given in the Prapanchahrdaya is obscure and is not corroborated by others.
In the Caranavyuha of Saunaka, Caraka, Maitrayaniya, Taittiriya and the Khandikeya are the major Sakhas of the KYV. Below is given a brief description of the Sakhas.<ref>Ganga Sagar Rai (1965), [https://archive.org/details/puranavolvii015193mbp/page/n247/mode/2up?view=theater Sakhas of the Krsna Yajurveda in the Puranas], Purana (Vol 7, No. 2), Varanasi: All India Kashiraj Trust.</ref>
