I have galls or bulb like growth on my crabs and
hawthorns. I was told they were caused by mealy bugs.
You can see the bugs in their cottony mass on stems
and roots (if I don't catch it quick enough)

Mealy bugs are insects and the galls are one of the
symptoms of rust which is a fungus. I am not sure
what you are asking

Probably quince rust; it "wreaked havoc" on my
amelanchier bonsai,
causing gall-like swellings. See
