Did you subscribe the missing groups in Gnus?

|      List all groups, whether they have unread articles or not
|      (`gnus-group-list-all-groups').  If the numeric prefix is used,

Probably this it the menu item you were looking for:
`gnus-group-list-all-groups is on L, A u, <menu-bar> <Groups>
<Listing> <List (un)subscribed groups>'

,----[ (info "(gnus)Misc Group Stuff") ]
| `gnus-permanently-visible-groups'
|      Groups matching this regexp will always be listed in the group
|      buffer, whether they are empty or not.
