  abstract     = {It is known that for a uniform morphic sequence 𝒖 =⟨𝑢𝑛⟩∞
𝑛=0 and an algebraic number 𝛽 such that |𝛽| >1, the number [[𝒖]]𝛽 :=∑∞
𝑛=0(𝑢𝑛/𝛽𝑛) either lies in ℚ⁡(𝛽) or is transcendental. In this paper, we show a similar rational–transcendental dichotomy for sequences defined by irreducible Pisot morphisms on binary alphabets. Subject to the Pisot conjecture (an irreducible Pisot morphism has pure discrete spectrum), we generalise the latter result to arbitrary finite alphabets. In certain cases, we are able to show transcendence of [[𝒖]]𝛽 outright. In particular, for 𝑘 ≥2, if 𝒖 is the k-Bonacci word, then [[𝒖]]𝛽 is transcendental.},
