1. A transgenic plant comprising: (a) a heterologous nucleic acid encoding an erythro-β-hydroxyaspartate aldolase enzyme, (b) a heterologous nucleic acid encoding an erythro-β-hydroxyaspartate dehydratase enzyme, (c) a heterologous nucleic acid encoding an iminosuccinate reductase enzyme comprising an amino acid sequence selected from SEQ ID NO: 1-299, or an amino acid sequence having at least 80% sequence identity to a sequence selected from SEQ ID NO: 1-299 and (d) a heterologous nucleic acid encoding an aspartate-glyoxylate transaminase enzyme comprising an amino acid sequence selected from SEQ ID NO: 300-599, or an amino acid sequence having at least 80% sequence identity to a sequence selected from SEQ ID NO:300-599.
