First off: Nothing about esper abilities is decided by genetics. esper powers are decided by one's Personal Reality, the set of values and beliefs a person has.

Secondly: As espers made through the PCP are artificial, this means that until that point, they had absolutely ZERO potential as espers, but it also means that what exactly causes one's potential to reach higher Levels be greater than others is a COMPLETE mystery that would require an explanation from the novel and not something we can hypothesize at this time.
