A blade for a rotor of a wind turbine has a root region with a substantially circular or elliptical profile closest to the hub and an airfoil region with a lift generating profile furthest away from the hub. A transition region has a base part with an inner dimension that varies linearly in the radial direction of the blade in such a way that an induction factor of the first base part without flow altering devices at a rotor design point deviates from a target induction factor. The first longitudinal segment is provided with a number of first flow altering devices arranged so as to adjust the aerodynamic properties of the first longitudinal segment to substantially meet the target induction factor at the design point.
