    Looks like black knot disease.

    Black knot can be controlled using a combination of prevention and sanitation.
    Remove all knots and swellings by pruning 3-4 inches below the knot during the dormant season before April 1st. ...
    Sterilize cutting shears with 70% rubbing alcohol to limit the spread of the disease.

    Good one.
