You can do this in your gnus-select-group-hook as Dave Goldberg indicated.
Or in the group parameters as Jason Tibbitts indicated.  I don't like the
latter because I have to remember to do this for each group where the
gnus-select-group-hook and gnus-group-generate-hook can let me do things
based on regexps and the like.

I use something like this (below) as my gnus-group-generate-hook.  This
hook is specifically used just before generating the *Summary* buffer and
is perfect for setting gnus-thread variables.

(defun jmv-gnus-prepare-groups ()
  ;; My mail groups
  (cond
   ;; My personal archives and
   ;; The Gnus outgoing mail/news archives
   ((string-match "^nnfolder\\+archive" gnus-newsgroup-name)
    (setq gnus-thread-hide-subtree t)
    (setq gnus-thread-sort-functions '(gnus-thread-sort-by-number
				       gnus-thread-sort-by-date)))
   ;; Tandem or ntemacs mailing lists
   ;; Ding mailing list.  Treat as a newsgroup with scores.
   ((string-match "tandem\\|ntemacs\\|ding" gnus-newsgroup-name)
    (setq gnus-thread-hide-subtree t)
    (setq gnus-thread-sort-functions '(gnus-thread-sort-by-number
				       gnus-thread-sort-by-subject
				       gnus-thread-sort-by-total-score)))
   ;; Any other nnml mail groups
   ((string-match "nnml" gnus-newsgroup-name)
    (setq gnus-thread-hide-subtree t)
    (setq gnus-thread-sort-functions '(gnus-thread-sort-by-number
				       gnus-thread-sort-by-date
				       gnus-thread-sort-by-total-score)))
   ;; Gnus draft group
   ((string-match "nndraft" gnus-newsgroup-name)
    (setq gnus-thread-hide-subtree t)
    (setq gnus-thread-sort-functions '(gnus-thread-sort-by-date)))
   ;; All the rest (nntp)
   (t
    (setq gnus-thread-hide-subtree t)
    (setq gnus-thread-sort-functions '(gnus-thread-sort-by-number
				       gnus-thread-sort-by-subject
				       gnus-thread-sort-by-total-score)))
   )
  )
