We examine the relation between different electronic transport phenomena in a Fabry-Perot interferometer in the fractional quantum Hall regime. In particular, we study the way these phenomena reflect the statistics of quantum Hall quasi-particles. For two series of states we examine, one abelian and one non-abelian, we show that the information that may be obtained from measurements of the lowest order interference pattern in an open Fabry-Perot interferometer is identical to the one that may be obtained from the temperature dependence of Coulomb blockade peaks in a closed interferometer. We argue that despite the similarity between the experimental signatures of the two series of states, interference and Coulomb blockade measurements are likely to be able to distinguish between abelian and non-abelian states, due to the sensitivity of the abelian states to local perturbations, to which the non-abelian states are insensitive.
