See http://gnus.org/manual/message_39.html#SEC39 - which says:

  "message-cite-function
    Function for citing an original message. The default is
    message-cite-original, which simply inserts the original message and
    prepends `> ' to each line. message-cite-original-without-signature
    does the same, but elides the signature. You can also set it to
    sc-cite-original to use Supercite."

or:

,----[ C-h v message-cite-function RET ]
| `message-cite-function' is a variable declared in Lisp.
|   -- loaded from "message"
| 
| Value: sc-cite-original
| 
| Documentation:
| *Function for citing an original message.
| Predefined functions include `message-cite-original' and
| `message-cite-original-without-signature'.
| Note that these functions use `mail-citation-hook' if that is non-nil.
