Yes, a knot on a tree branch is often referred to as a "burl." This typically occurs when the tree undergoes stress or injury, causing localized abnormal growth. Burls are valued for their unique appearance and are often used in woodworking for their interesting grain patterns.
A knot forms in wood when a branch or limb grows out of the tree trunk, causing a concentration of grain and density in that area.
A knot in timber is caused by the presence of a tree branch or limb that has grown from the trunk. When the tree grows, the wood around the branch forms a knot as the branch's growth pattern differs from that of the surrounding trunk. This results in a denser area in the wood, which can affect the timber's strength and appearance. Knots can vary in size, shape, and quality, influencing the wood's suitability for various applications.
A knot in a tree forms when a branch or limb dies and its base becomes enclosed by new layers of wood as the tree grows. This creates a swollen area called a branch collar. Over time, the branch collar can become surrounded by new growth, forming what appears as a knot in the wood.

The dead knot defect in timber is caused by the death of a branch or twig within the tree, resulting in a hole or void in the wood where the knot once was. This defect can weaken the structural integrity of the timber and may affect its appearance and performance. Proper tree pruning and selection can help prevent dead knots from forming in timber.
