Tree knots are common on most tree types.  They can be the result of disease or improper trimming of tree limbs.  Open knots can become a perfect home for moisture to settle and begin roting the tree from the inside out.  Looking at the photo to the bottom left you see the tree looks healthy from the outside but hidden core rot makes this an accident waiting to happen.

Here you can see many different types of tree fungus.  They come in many different colors and textures.  Proper identification of this condition is vital for treatment.
